Summary of this Book... | ||
In this mystery featuring one of Agatha Christie's most famous detectives, a quiet English town is rocked by the murder of local bigwig Roger Ackroyd. The police's main suspect: his niece's boyfriend, who happens to have disappeared from town on the night of the murder. The niece enlists the aid of the "retired" Hercule Poirot to find the truth -- before the police make a grave mistake. With the help of the local doctor, Poirot does exactly that. Red herrings and plot twists ensue. | ||
